Can I just use my iPad as a hotspot ?
Why do i have to pay for two devices to have I'm cards and Internet access wherever I go? Could I just turn one of my devices into a personal hotspot?

I have ad Apple ID on my iPad , when I use the apple on my iPhone for the first time, I put in my Apple ID for the iPad, didn't work. Need to create a new one. Why? How can I just use my iPad ID on my iPhone?
Hi kamfong,
Went to Settings where?
If you want to use your exisiting Apple ID on your iPad, you need to:
1. Go to Settings>iTunes & App Store and sign out the new ID, and then sign on the old one
2. Go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and delete the iCloud account, and the sign back onto iCloud using the old ID
You still have not indindated why you are saying that using your old ID originally "didn't work". What do you mean by that? Did you get some sort of error when you tried to sign on with your exisiting Apple ID?
Cheers,

Can I still use the ipad charging dock with the lightning adaptor
I have just purchased the ipad with retina display + another lightning adaptor - can I still use my ipad dock?
Apple sells an adapter http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD823ZM/A/lightning-to-30-pin-adapter
May be some 3rd party adapters for less $. You need to Google search.

There is no "deactivate" function and the technical support person I chatted with recommended I come here. Can I just use the serial number again? How can I deactive? Has anyone else run into this? How can I get Dreamweaver 8, which is no longer being activated by Adobe, on a new computer? Is it even worth doing or do I need to get a new version. What are the killer features I'm missing?
If you manage to get it installed on your current OS, don't forget to install the 8.02 update.

As a Verizon FIOS client, can we just use Ethernet cable to connect to time capsule or do we need the Verizon router to connect to time capsule?
The Time Capsule is indeed a wireless router with simultaneous dual band capability...and a hard drive for backup purposes. You can use that to your advantage if you configure the Time Capsule as I suggested in Bridge Mode.
The Time Capsule will provide a 802.11n 5 GHz band and a 802.11n/g/b compatible 2.4 GHz band to allow virtually any device to connect to the network.
I suppose that you could also use the "g" wireless network provided by the Verizon router as a "guest" network or something similar if you really do need another wireless network.
It might be possible to configure the Time Capsule as the main router on the network....that's a question for Verizon. But even if you might be able to do this, I'm sure it is not supported by Verizon, so you would be on your own in the event of any Internet connection difficulties on your service.
And, since the Time Capsule does not have a built in modem....you would still need to add a separate modem to the installation anyway.
That's why my suggestion is to use the Verizon device as the "modem" and let the Time Capsule provide the dual band wireless network and of course, handle the Time Machine backups. -

This issue is with Netflix upgrade. I spoke to Netflix and here is the solution. Remove Netflix app from Ipad and reload the app version 5.0.1. This updated version will correct the problem.

After the upgrade to ios5, I can no longer use my iPad to make purchases on ticketmaster. Does anyone have a solution?
Apple changed MobileMe to iCloud and then restricted iCloud to 10.7 users only unfortunately
If your machine is a 64 bit processor Intel Mac you can upgrade to 10.7 for $29, however a lot of your 10.5/10.6/Rosetta based software could cease to function, especially third party hardware drivers for printers, fax machines, all-in-ones, scanners etc.
http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
Also depending how old the machine is, if it can accept 4GB of RAM (preferred), older video card, may not run 10.7 very well or stable.
My advice is to keep at 10.6.8, get a web based email service that's plaform/hardware neutral, forward your iPhone emails there. Gmail/Yahoo Mail for instance.
When your ready for new hardware and all new software, then buy a new machine.
If your going to go to 10.7 on your present hardware, I advise you clone 10.6.8 to a external drive first, that way you can c boot off the 10.6 disk erase the drive completely (necessary to remove hidden Lion Recovery Partition) and option boot off the 10.6.8 clone and reverse clone.

I am in Greece, do i need a power converter or can i just use a plug adaptor to charge my macbook pro?
If you are using the included Apple charger, you will simply need a plug adapter.

I am traveling from the US to France and have a Macbook Pro. Can I just use a plug adaptor or do I need a power converter to plug in?
Just an adapter to change the US plug style to the one in the country you are going to. The AC charger will do the rest. It is rated for 120-240 volts and will adjust on its own.

if i get an i pad with 3 g service capability do i have to use it in order for the i pad to work or can i just use the wifi part because i dont have the extra money to pay for a data plan
If you do get 3G, you only use cellular when wifi is not available. You pay by the month for a 3/4G plan.

What can't I use my iPad in another house with the same internet service as mine
Why can't I use my iPad in another location that has same internet service. Comcast. As me
Presumably, if that house was a wifi network, and you know the wifi networks password so you can connect, you can use it. Does the homeowner have a secured network? Have you asked them for the password to connect?

Why can't I use the iPad as my smartphone?
My basic question is,why can't I use the IPad as my smartphone? Ipad is doing everything what a smartphone does, except the calling facilities. Since IPad can connect to the Internet(WiFi), and via VOIP services like skype or yahoo, we can very well connect to any mobile or landline phone. So what I'm asking is, Ipad can very well provide some User interface as phone does and internally it can use the VOIP to connect to phones. Share your views.
My basic question is,why can't I use the IPad as my smartphone?
You can as long as you don't want to make calls over a mobile phone network as the iPad doesn't have the hardware to make calls that way.
At least we'll be able to recognise you on a call: -
Can i just use photoshop cs4 to rotobrush footage?
there is this new feature I have seen in after effects cs5 called rotobrush. at first glance it appears to be a photoshop selection tool that has been ported over to after effects. is this correct? if so can i just use the video features in photoshop to achieve the same effect? I am struggling with a green screen shot where the screen is reflecting in the side of the car. i may need to just lose the green screen altogether and shoot the car and actor against a kind of uniform brown background and rotoscope the actor and car. instead of upgrading to production studio cs6 perhaps i can already do what i need to do with my existing software which is cs4.
thanks in advance
AngusI looked at the two clips, and I'm sorry you're so far into the project. Bad reflections. Unwanted shadows. I noticed you wondered out loud, "How do they do it in Hollywood?"
For starters, they use visual effects people with years of training and experience. They have photographers who already know how to shoot for visual effects. Frame One never gets shot until they KNOW things will work.
The only time they shoot just on faith of success is when they shoot test footage. Not in production.
In my opinion, you're at this metaphorical point:
You're sitting on the limb of a tree, working hard to saw the limb off. Unfortunately, you're making the cut between you and the tree trunk. Once you realize the mistake, you have two options: stop immediately, give it up as a bad job, climb down and try again later... or keep on working and fall hard.
Thus, I offer advice you won't want to hear: stop right now. Cut your losses. Don't waste your time and money until you get the knowledge you need.
This is a good and comparatively inexpensive starting point. -
